Configuring physical volume timeout
The physical volume timeout value for multipathing support has restrictions.
Physical volumes (PV) can be multipathed with the IBM®
System Storage®
Multipath Subsystem Device
Driver (SDD) or HP PVLinks. You must set the PV
timeout as follows:
- Physical volumes that are multipathed with SDD must have a PV timeout of 90 seconds.
- Physical volumes that are multipathed with PVLinks must have a PV timeout of 60 seconds. (The timeout default set by PVLinks is 4 minutes.)
